Point of No Return - Season 1 Episode 2 Japan, the utopia of AI and robots

While the world wonders whether artificial intelligence will be a threat to human existence, Japan sees it as a possible solution to many of its problems. Are we at a point of no return with the onset of AI? The world is wondering if the irruption of artificial intelligence could be a threat even to human existence. In Japan, on the other hand, the government, scientists and most of the population see AI and robots as a solution to many of their problems. The Japanese perception of robots and AI is very different from the Western one, for reasons as diverse as the particular demographic needs of an increasingly aging society, the influence of manga and anime, or spiritual beliefs. But does everyone in Japan really believe that the future could be a utopia where we will work less, live longer, merge with AI, and where it might even help us conquer space?
